Star Trek: Picard & The Late Late Show Join Covid Production Shutdown List

Since the beginning of 2022, the Omicron variant of Covid-19 has continued to wreak havoc across the entertainment industry, with Star Trek: Picard and The Late, Late Show with James Corden being two of the latest to halt production as the number of positive Covid cases increases to unmanageable levels on set. On the same day that L.A. recorded a record 10,000 new Covid cases, the news of the two shut-downs came in the same week that Sony delayed the release of Marvel movie Morbius, the Grammy Awards were postponed and several premieres and red carpet events were either canceled or delayed indefinitely.
